The secrets told the secrets kept
The quiet whispers
The truth unveiled
Here it comes...
I love the 80's
Contacts being sold commercially
You can see why I fell in love
People could finally see
1987 you are definitely for me
You "gotta have the faith, the faith, the faith."
George Michael's album "Faith" rocked
It made my headphones BOP and BOP
Prozac debuts in the USA
Causing depression to go away!
Well..... at least for the day.
The Simpsons first come on the TV screen
1987 you make me want to SCREAM!
Who invented this show?
Bart Simpson put down that YO-YO!
Thank goodness for the hero of 1987
So brawny, and fierce
Tom Selleck's mustache saved the day
In that popular movie "Three men and a baby."
The FDA approved AZT
A miracle drug to treat Aids
It fights for the life of many innocent souls
Thank goodness for 1987
The president was Ronald Regan
He was popular in films, and TV.
The wistful western or romantic, but of course
there weren't any DVD's!
Which brings me to Michael Jackson
A singer and dancer above the rest
He made so many hit albums
but I argue his best was in 1987
"BAD!"
Just like the Iran Contra Affair which was really sad and BAD.
The affair was BAD, real BAD, WE know it! BAD!
Turn that frown upside down
Because we also had new transplants
Like the first Heart and Lung transplant
It made people live, and gave hope to many
It gave hope to Jenny, Linny, and Kenny
Oh and then Black Monday
Spoiled our moods
The stock market crashed
And made us all blue
All ended up well, and 1987 was
interesting,
complex, but
ultimately swell!
1987 on Dipity.
